GLEN EIRA
ARTISTS SOCIETY

ABOUT
GEAS is a non-profit organisation, providing opportunities for local artists to meet and work together in a supportive group atmosphere. Members can benefit from regular classes with an experienced teacher and life models, outdoor painting sessions, an annual ‘paint-out’ day and opportunities to exhibit their work?.
​
In 2009 the Rotary Club of Caulfield identified a need for a local art group in the Glen Eira City Council area, as there was then no art-based organisation with a professional focus. Rotary set a series of goals to be met in order to fill this gap. These goals have gradually been realised and the Glen Eira Artists Society Inc. now has a dedicated committee, a growing membership and provides regular weekly, monthly and annual events that give local artists opportunities to connect, learn, improve their skills and exhibit their work. New members are welcome.
